Abstract The paper investigates the influence of the process of running-in the ends of rollers and sides of cylindrical roller bearings on the conditions of hydrodynamic contact of these parts: the formation of an oil film and friction. For this purpose, the results of finite element modeling of the stress-strain state of the bearing parts in contact: the inner ring, the side flange and a fragment of the axle of the wheelset, and the multi-mass simulation of the dynamics of the bearing operation are used. The influence of the yaw angle of the roller on the size and shape of the contact area on the side is investigated. The dependences for calculating the thickness of the oil film in the contact between the ends of the rollers and the flanges of the bearing rings are being refined, which now make it possible to take into account the misaligned position of these parts during their force interaction. The results are illustrated using the example of a roller bearing of standard size 232926.

Normally cylindrical roller bearings are employed to transmit purely radial loads. However, depending upon the configuration of lips or flanges on the rings, it is sometimes possible to carry an axial load. In certain applications, an axial load capability is essential. A significant feature in determining the performance of a cylindrical roller bearing under axial loading is the lubrication conditions existing between the lips and rolling elements. The paper describes a study of such conditions. The long-term aim of the work is to provide a basis for the design of cylindrical roller bearings to carry axial loads.

The effects of speed, load and roller geometry on the oil film thickness and shape in a complete roller bearing are demonstrated experimentally by means of optical interferometry. At quite moderate roller speeds, increase of film thickness becomes inhibited. This effect is attributed to a truncated inlet meniscus, a similar condition having been observed elsewhere with a ball-and-plate machine and with a model of a tapered-roller thrust bearing.

The operating clearance in a bearing influences friction, load zone size and fatigue life of a bearing. Hence, an effort is made to investigate the effect of radial internal clearance on the dynamical behavior of a cylindrical roller bearing system with an unbalance present in the system. The differential equations representing the dynamics of the cylindrical roller bearings have been derived using Lagrange’s equations and solved numerically using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta iterative method. The nonlinear vibration signature has been analyzed due to the clearance and the same is represented by various tools like Acceleration-time plots, Poincaré plots and FFT plots. The approximation method is used to calculate the load distribution and deformation of the individual rollers located at a different position in the load zone, for a preloading/interference fit and positive internal clearance. A response surface method is used to analyze the severity involved in the system due to the combined effect of independent variables like rotor speed, radial load, and radial internal clearance. The observations presented here are not only useful to diagnose the bearing health condition with respect to parametric effects but also exhibit their interactive effects on bearing performance.

As large-scale rotating machines develop toward high rotating speed and high power–weight ratio, skidding damage has become one of the major initial failure modes of cylindrical roller bearings. Therefore, understanding the skidding damage law is an effective way to ensure the safety of machines supported by cylindrical roller bearings. To realize the skidding damage, a high-speed rolling bearing test rig that can simulate the actual operating conditions of aviation bearings was used in this paper, and the skidding damage dynamic behaviors of cylindrical roller bearings were investigated. In addition, to ensure the accuracy of the obtained skidding damage mechanism, the cylindrical roller bearing was carefully inspected by microscopic analysis when the skidding damage occurred. Out results show that instantaneous increases in friction torque, vibration acceleration, and temperature are clearly observed when the skidding damage occurs in the cylindrical roller bearing. Furthermore, under the conditions of inadequate lubrication and light load, the critical speed of skidding damage is rather low. The major wear mechanisms of skidding damage include oxidation wear, abrasive wear, and delamination wear. The white layers are found locally in the inner ring and rollers under the actions of friction heat and shear force.

Bearings are manufactured in a wide variety of types and sizes especially with a single row of rollers, two rows of rollers or more, with cages or roller beside roller. Researches carried out by authors in this paper have followed a comparative analysis between a standard cylindrical roller bearings design and a prototype design using finite element method software's like ANSYS and MESYS. ANSYS is commonly used and enjoyed by an extended use in the structural areas, for analysis. ANSYS it consists of three main phases: Pre-processing, conducting or importing of the solid model system that are to be analyzed, solid meshing design in finite elements, implementation of conditions and loads at the limit, Processing, numeric solving of the characteristic equations behavior of the system and getting the solution, Post-processing, viewing the results in order to analyses system reaction and identification of areas with critical applications. The purpose of the study was to collect data's using two different software's and after to compare them with mathematical results. Using the ANSYS in this purpose it was able to analyses the design of the structure of the cylindrical roller bearing in detail.

The principal objective of this paper is to ascertain and quantify the cyclic movement of the centre of a shaft in a geometrically perfect, lubricated, cylindrical roller bearing exhibiting initial clearance and subjected to a light and steady load. The movement may be important in relation to the accuracy of location of shafts in roller bearings, and it is shown that a detailed consideration of the rolling element assembly predicts some interesting effects. The study also covers more conventional features of bearing performance such as lubricant film thickness and coefficient of friction, and shows the effect of squeeze to be negligible under steady bearing loads.

Hollow cylindrical roller bearings (HCRBs) have obtained much attention from design engineers in bearing industries since they can perform better than solid cylindrical roller bearings (SCRBs) in centrifugal forces, contact stiffness, cooling ability, fatigue life, etc. In this study, an analytical dynamic model of a lubricated HCRB is presented to analyze the influences of the radial load, the shaft speed, and the hollowness percentage of the roller on the bearing vibrations, which cannot be formulated by the methods in the reported literature. Both the support stiffness of the shaft and the roller mass are formulated in the presented dynamic model. The hollow hole in the roller is modeled as a uniform one. Numerical results show that the hollowness percentage of the roller has a great influence on the vibrations of the roller and the inner race of the HCRB. Moreover, the vibrations of the components of the HCRB are not only determined by the hollowness percentage of the roller, but also depended on the external radial load and shaft speed. Therefore, during the design process for the hollowness percentage of the roller, the influences of the radial load and the shaft speed on the vibrations of the bearing components should be considered, except for the fatigue life. The results show that this work can give a new dynamic method for analyzing the vibrations of the HCRBs. Moreover, it can give some guidance for the design method for the HCRBs.

Elastic composite cylindrical roller bearing is a new type of rolling bearings. Its rolling body is composed of rigid and flexible materials. In order to investigate the modal characteristics and harmonic response rules of the elastic composite cylindrical roller bearings with different structural parameters, we computed the modal solutions of a cylindrical roller bearing and the elastic composite cylindrical roller bearings with filling degrees of 40%, 50% and 65%, and determined the scope of the excitation frequency according to the computed first twelve orders of the modal frequency. On this basis, we analyzed the steady-state response under a sinusoidal alternating load as well as the vibration conditions of the elastic composite cylindrical roller bearings with different filling degrees within the excitation scope, and explored the relationship between the responses such as displacement and stress and the excitation frequency. The results showed that the natural frequencies of the elastic composite cylindrical roller bearings with filling degrees of 40% and 50% were similar to that of a solid bearing, while that of the elastic composite cylindrical roller bearings with a filling degree of 65% was relatively smaller than that of a solid bearing. The vibration modes of the bearings mainly manifested as bending and torsional deformation of the inner rings. Under the action of an excitation load, the peak responses of the bearings occurred near the fifth and sixth orders of the natural frequency. This research can provide a theoretical reference for the optimal design and engineering applications of the elastic composite cylindrical roller bearings.

This paper describes the measurement of oil film thickness between rolling element and inner raceway in cylindrical roller bearing. A fine piezoelectric element is bonded on the inner surface of the inner ring to measure the reflection coefficient of oil between rolling element and inner raceway. The quasi-static spring model is used to calculate oil film thickness from the corrected reflection coefficient data. Experiments are described on a simplified cylindrical roller bearing configured by one cylindrical roller, 11ø, and an inner ring from a NU209EM bearing. Reasonable agreement is shown over several loads and speeds with predictions from elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) theory.
